Dynamic privilege allocation based on cognitive multiple-factor evaluation

Abstract:

In an embodiment, a method for allocating privileges on a computer network includes calculating a permission level based at least in part on a login context associated with a login request for connection to a network from a user via a client device, adjusting the calculated permission level such that a resulting first adjusted permission level does not exceed a previous permission level assigned to the client device, assigning the first adjusted permission level to the client device, collecting activity data representative of network activity by the user while logged in to the network, and classifying, using a classifier model, at least a portion of the activity data to generate a second adjusted permission level for the client device.
